Current state of iOS/macOS outliners
11/6/2017
That's a good working definition -- and given that definition I'd suggest the universe of software discussed in this thread could expand to included "mind mapping". For me, that means iThoughtsX and...
Current state of iOS/macOS outliners
11/5/2017
OmniOutliner might appear "old fashioned" -- but it has features that many / most "outliners" do not have:
- By using columns we can have a nearly unlimited number of customer "attributes" / "fields"...
TheBrain 9 reaches its beta phase
11/3/2017
TheBrain's iOS version as of today is TheBrain 9 -- so now on desktop and mobile platforms TheBrain 9 is the default.
TheBrain 9 iOS is pretty good -- not great -- there are syncing limitation with a...
The Tinderbox Way 3rd Edition released
10/26/2017
Tinderbox / Eastgate has always been Mark Bernstein solo. He has some office assistance. Stacy Mason helped out with some literature for a while. But the entire vision, development, implementation...

Modern applications on macOS can store documents in various places. AppStore apps are sandboxed and usually store documents in ~/Library/Containers/... Other applications will store documents in ....
Thank you for locating that.

Workload tracking?
10/21/2017
The best "secret sauce" in my opinion is the David Allen advice to have an inbox, record anything that comes to mind there, and forget it as soon as you've recorded it. There's lot's of ways to have...
You cannot configure a private sync / cloud service in the basic version -- perhaps in the enterprise version, but this is not clear.
Information about security, sync storage, encryption, and privacy...
I agree with Steve, and would add to his list the ability to have multiple tabs for the same brain. This makes working with a document that has a lot of nodes very easy -- without having to spend a ...
BBEdit reaches v12
10/17/2017
As far as I can tell (being a former TextWrangler user) the features it had are present in BBEdit, the look and feel is pretty much the same, and BBEdit offers a "free demo mode forever" for those fea...

This is not going to be for everyone -- but, I use DocuWiki on my own NAS server and can access it locally and online via a private address. There are also options to get DocuWiki hosting from other...
BBEdit reaches v12
10/17/2017
BBEdit -- a venerable text editor on macOS -- has reached version 12 with a number of new features. It is available at various discount levels depending on when you might have bought a predecessor ve...
I'd say the same -- but since they gave themselves an out by allegedly telling their customers "Atomic Scribbler is not a replacement product for PageFour" they absolved themselves of future customer-...
Process Documentation?
10/14/2017
Yes, most BPMN software is for diagramming. Not the solution for what describe.
I agree with Dr. Andus' suggestion of ConnectedText -- what you described (navigation bar, click-through to content) ...
TiddlyWiki resurgent
10/13/2017
I've been using TiddlyWiki for years -- so I know all about its "wonders" -- but had abandoned it because of the saving issue. V5 does nothing to fix it the problem I suppose. I get the point about...
Process Documentation?
10/13/2017
"Document all my processes" can have a lot of nuances -- from "writing up some todo list templates" to "making formal BPMN process notation. If you are thinking more toward the right end of that spe...

Thanks for the tips Bill. I think I'm misunderstanding a few things. The new tiddlers added to a document are not saved in the document but you have to periodically export a new instance of the doc...
Great features, Andy. Hyperplan is certainly continuing to evolve.
I'm curious about how these links get orchestrated in the real world. Probably like other folk, the calendar is my overall guide ...
Scrivener 3 is on the way…
10/4/2017
Same here. I've found Windows 10 to be pretty stable -- having used it since day one of its release -- Windows 7 was fine also -- the transition from 7 to 10 was seamless.

Maybe open a support ticket? The developer is very responsive.

Word document creation

@pedbob, you didn't mention what OS you were working with. If it's Windows, you might consider ConnectedText. Or even OneNote. I wouldn't limit the export options to MS Word .docx files because ...
NotePlan

One of my favorite apps.
I've mentioned the iOS version a few times this year.

OmmWriter gets an update

OmmWriter, a minimalist / distraction free "writing environment" (i.e., full screen text editor) has been updated. It's a bit difficult to tell what the update is. Available for Mac and Windows --...
